A look at three crime shows across three different streamers: « Narcos » on Netflix, « Gomorrah » on HBO Max, and « ZeroZeroZero » on Prime Video.
The great thing about having so many streaming services these days to choose from, from Netflix to Apple TV Plus and more, is that it pretty much guarantees there will always be something for everyone to enjoy. Granted, some of the streamers have much deeper libraries of content than others. But if you’re especially into specific popular genres — like, say, crime shows — you’ll most likely find an abundance of riches across multiple platforms.
On Friday, Netflix released the official trailer for season two of Snabba Cash, a fantastic and seriously underrated Swedish-language crime show. The new season is coming to the streamer on September 22, and you can watch the trailer right here. I’ll have a review of the new season in a separate post, but the trailer got me reminiscing about some of my favorite and what I also think are the best crime shows across multiple services, titles that we’ll take a closer look at below.
